Application ID:

Permit(s) Applied for:

Article 19 Air Title V Facility

Project is Located:

Rochester, Monroe County

Project Description:

Sunoco Partners Marketing & Terminals LP has submitted an application for renewal of its Title V Facility Permit for its Rochester Terminal, a petroleum product storage and distribution facility located at 1840 Lyell Avenue in the City of Rochester. The facility is subject to 6 NYCRR Part 201-6, Title V Facility Permits, for major stationary sources due to potential emissions of volatile organic compounds (VOC) in excess of 50 tons per year.

The Title V Facility Permit as modified October 4, 2001 to authorize a VOC vapor combustion unit, was renewed on September 14, 2005, and modified effective May 31, 2006 to revise compliance conditions as specified by EPA.

No significant changes from the current Title V Permit, as modified May 31, 2006, are proposed. Potential emissions proposed for the renewed permit will be unchanged from those authorized by the current permit.

As Part of this application, Sunoco Partners has proposed to continue the present restriction on emissions of hazardous air pollutants (HAP) to below the 40 CFR Part 63 Subpart R (and Title V) thresholds of 10 tons per year of any individual HAP and 25 tons per year of all HAP compounds combined. To accomplish this, facility throughput will continue to be limited to 186,513,591 gallons of gasoline, 193,146,042 gallons of distillates (#1 and #2 oil) and 1,310,000 gallons of transmix in any 12 consecutive month period. (Transmix is a by-product of pipeline transport, created by mixing of different products.) Records to document facility throughput must be maintained on site for 5 years, and made available to department inspectors on request.

In accordance with 6NYCRR Parts 621.7(b)(9) and 201-6.4(c), the Administrator of the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) has the authority to bar issuance of any Title V Facility Permit if it is determined not to be in compliance with applicable requirements of the Clean Air Act or 6NYCRR Part 201.

Persons wishing to inspect the subject Title V files, including the application with all relevant supporting materials, the draft permit, and all other materials available to the DEC (the "permitting authority") that are relevant to this permitting decision should contact the DEC representative listed below.

Permit(s) Applied for:

Article 23 Title 27 Mined Land Reclamation

Project is Located:

Palmyra, Wayne County

Project Description:

The Department has received an application from Dolomite Products Co Inc for a 15.3 acre expansion of an existing 647.1 acre sand and gravel mine on properties totaling 1050 acres straddling Whitbeck and Palmer Roads in the Towns of Arcadia and Palmyra. Most of the 15.3 acre expansion area, known as the "Railroad Pit", has been affected by previous mining operations.
The current permit for a 647.1 acre life of mine area was issued August 24, 2006, and was the subject of a Final Environmental Impact Statement which the Department accepted June 2, 2006.
The expansion area is located at the southeast end of the mine site, and will be used as a new location for the processing equipment currently located on the east side of Palmer Road. This will result in mine traffic entering and exiting the site onto Whitbeck Road (County Route 224), just north of the Erie Canal along an old railroad right of way. This was identified as a "Proposed Alternate Site Access" in the application for the current permit.

Mining operations will be unchanged from those previously permitted, except for the direction of mining, now to initially proceed to the west from the floor of the new processing area, rather than to the east from the Palmer Road location. Excavation by mechanical equipment will remove approximately 156,000 tons of sand and gravel from the west side of the expansion area not previously mined, and from the creation of 2 ponds totaling 1.6 acres to serve as settling basins and as a source of water for materials processing. The applicant has indicated that traffic from mining operations will be unchanged from the current average of 10 trucks per hour and peak rate of 30 trucks per hour.

Mining is not proposed below the local water table, except for the excavation of the ponds. Proposed final contours show grades that will retain storm water runoff within the mined area. No off site discharge of storm water runoff will be permitted. There are no NY State regulated streams or freshwater wetlands within the expansion area.

Hours of operation proposed are unchanged from current operations. Final reclamation to agricultural land is proposed, and will include the replacement of stockpiled topsoil and seeding with an approved mixture.

The application is available for review at the Region 8 NYSDEC office, and copies of the application materials have been sent to the Towns of Palmyra and Arcadia.

Filed application documents, and Department draft permits where applicable, are available for inspection during normal business hours at the address of the contact person. To ensure timely service at the time of inspection, it is recommended that an appointment be made with the contact person.
